Joder Chritzer (also known as Crützer of Kreuzer) built this impressive building in 1577 for his wife and 16 children. Most characteristic is the first floor with the round-top windows and the round-top entrance in particular. Ochre coloured tuff stone was used for all decoreated window and door frames. The upper floors are wooden constructions as is customary in the Valais. The entrance archway is decorated with a beautiful scroll ornament. On the main entrance archway Joder Kritzer wrote: «JODER CRICER/CASTELAN. ZV VISP/ WEN. GOT. WIL/ SO. IST. MIN. ZIL. 1577» (If it is God's will, then Joders ambition shall be God). The basement / Carnotzet, features a semi-derelict tunnel which was used in the Middle Ages as a secret escape route for the noblemen. In 1984 the Cricer house has been renovated completely and professionally by the owners. The Cricer house is a listed building.
